Intended use
The mixer UT 1200 is used to stir and mix paint, glue, tile adhesive, etc. Up to an amount of approximately 30kg. The diameter of the stirrers that are used should not exceed 120mm.
The mixer UT 1400 is suitable for stirring and mixing paints, plaster, mortar, tile adhesive, leveling and smoothing compounds, and similar materials up to a quantity of 50kg. The diameter of the mixing agitators must not exceed a value of 140mm.
The user shall be responsible for damages caused by inappropriate use.
Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the safety instructions enclosed shall be observed.
Power supply
The machine shall only be connected to the voltage stated on the type plate and it only works with single-phase AC voltage. It is provided with double protective insulation according to European standards and thus, it may be also connected to sockets without ground cable.
Do only use extension cables with sufficient cross-section. A cross-section that is too small may lead to excessive loss of power and overheating of the tool and the cable.
Safety Instructions
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR THIS MACHINE
- If the connecting cable is damaged or cut during work, do not touch it and immediately disconnect the power plug. In any case, do not work with the tool if the connecting cable is damaged.
- The tool should not be humid and it should not be operated in a humid environment.
- Do not use the tool to mix explosive or easily inflammable substances and do not use it in areas close to these substances.
- Do not use the cable to carry the tool.
- Do always inspect the tool, the cable, and the plug before using it. Repairs shall only be carried out by an expert. The plug shall only be connected to the socket if the tool is switched off.
- Do only operate the tool outdoor with a residual current circuit breaker with a maximum of 30 mA.
- Do not leave the hand-held mixer running unattended.
- Do disconnect the power plug and check if the hand-held mixer is switched off when it is left unattended, e.g. during assembly and disassembly work, voltage drop, insertion, and/or assembly of accessories.
- Do switch off the tool if it stops operating due to whatever cause in order to avoid a sudden start of operation when it is unattended.
- Do always lead the cable away behind the tool.
- Do not use the tool if a part of the housing and/or the switch, cable or plug is damaged.
- Power tools shall be inspected by an expert regularly.
- Do not touch rotating parts.
- Be careful with long hair. Do not wear loose clothing.
- Do not manipulate the tool.
- Ensure that the handlebars are dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
- When the tool is operated manually, make sure that you always hold the tool with both hands and you stand in a firm position. Be aware of the reaction moment of the tool.
- Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Operating the machine
Wrong use may result in damages. Therefore, the following instructions shall always be observed:
Use stirrers recommended by the manufacturer (maximum diameter: 120 mm (UT1200), 140 mm (UT1400) with M14 thread).
Do not overload the machine in a way that causes a standstill.
Tool change
Caution!
Do always remove the power plug before carrying out any work on the tool.
You may catch your fingers when inserting the tool. Therefore, do always wear protective gloves when changing tools.
The work spindle of the tool is provided with an M14 internal thread.
Keep thread and front surfaces clean. Do use an SW 22 spanner to remove the stirrer and to hold up the work spindle.
Switching the machine on and off
Short-Time Operation
Starting the machine: Press the on/off switch
Stopping the machine: Release the on/off switch
Permanent Operation
Starting the machine: Press on/off switch and while keeping it pressed, engage the lock button
Stopping the machine: Press on/off switch again and release it
The mixer has an electronic switch in order to regulate the speed level by keystrokes.
It is recommended to only use it when the machine is started or stopped in order to avoid splashing material. If the continuous mode is operated with reduced speed, it leads to overstress because the machine is not provided with enough cooling air, and overheating will occur significantly faster.
Care and Maintenance
Repairs shall only be carried out by qualified staff trained and experienced in this area. The tool shall be inspected by a skilled electrician after every repair. The power tool is designed to require only a minimum of maintenance and care.
However, the following work shall be carried out, and/or the following parts shall be inspected regularly:
- Do always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
- Make sure that no foreign objects get into the power tool.
- If the tool breaks down, the repair shall only be carried out by an authorized shop.
Information on noise and vibration
Measured values determined according to EN 60745
The A-weighted noise level of the tool is typical:
| UT 1200 | UT 1400 | |
| Sound pressure level (LPA) | 86 dB(A) | 86 dB(A) |
| Sound power level (LWA) | 97 dB(A) | 97 dB(A) |
| Uncertainty K | 3 dB | 3 dB |
Wear ear protection!
| UT 1200 | UT 1400 | |
| Hand-arm vibration | 1,05 m/s² | 0,5 m/s² |
| Uncertainty K | 1,5 m/s² | 1,5 m/s² |
Measured values determined according to EN 60745
The vibration emission level indicated in these instructions has been measured in accordance with a standardized test method given in EN 60745 and can be used to compare one tool with another. It is also suitable for a preliminary evaluation of the vibration emission level.
The vibration emission level set out in these instructions presents the main applications of the power tool. if the power tool is used for other applications or with different tools or if maintenance is not sufficient, the vibration emission level may vary. This may lead to a significantly higher vibration emission level during the whole working period.
In order to be accurate, an estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running but not actually used. This may significantly reduce the level of exposure to vibration during the whole working period.
Additional protective measures in order to protect the operator from vibration effects, e.g. maintenance of power tools and tools, keeping hands warm, and organization of work processes, shall be determined.
